3 The ESC Region 8 and TIPS is a Texas Political Subdivision and a local governmental entity; therefore, is prohibited
   from
   indemnifying third parties pursuant to the Texas Constitution (Article 3, Section 52) except as specifically provided b
   y law or as
   ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction. A provision in a contract to indemnify or hold a party harmless is a pro
   mise to pay for
   any expenses the indemnified party incurs, if a specified event occurs, such as breaching the terms of the contract
   or negligently
   performing duties under the contract. Article III, Section 49 of the Texas Constitution states that "no debt shall be cre
   ated by or on
   behalf of the State ... " The Attorney General has counseled that a contractually imposed obligation of indemnity cre
   ates a "debt" in
   the constitutional sense. Tex. Att'y Gen. Op. No. MW-475 (1982). Contract clauses which require the System or insti
   tutions to
   indemnify must be deleted or qualified with ''to the extent permitted by the Constitution and Laws of the State of Tex
   as." Liquidated
   damages, attorney's fees, waiver of vendor's liability, and waiver of statutes of limitations clauses should also be del
   eted or qualified
   with "to the extent permitted by the Constitution and laws of State of Texas."

7 Texas Education Code Chapter 22 Contractor Certification for Contractor Employees
3 Introduction: Texas Education Code Chapter 22 requires entities that contract with school districts to provide service
   s to obtain criminal history record information regarding covered employees. Contractors must certify to the district t
   hat they have complied. Covered employees with disqualifying criminal histories are prohibited from serving at a sch
   ool district.

   Definitions: Covered employees: Employees of a contractor or subcontractor who have or will have continuing dutie
   s related to the service to be performed at the District and have or will have direct contact with students. The District
   will be the final arbiter of what constitutes direct contact with students. Disqualifying criminal history: Any conviction
   or other criminal history information designated by the District, or one of the following offenses, if at the time of the o
   ffense, the victim was under 18 or enrolled in a public school:

   (a) a felony offense under Title 5, Texas Penal Code; (b) an offense for which a defendant is required to register as
   a sex offender under Chapter 62, Texas Code of Criminal Procedure; or (c) an equivalent offense under federal law
   or the laws of another state.


   I certify that:


   NONE (Section A) of the employees of Contractor and any subcontractors are covered employees, as defined abo
   ve. If this box is checked, I further certify that Contractor has taken precautions or imposed conditions to ensure tha
   t the employees of Contractor and any subcontractor will not become covered employees. Contractor will maintain t
   hese precautions or conditions throughout the time the contracted services are provided.


   OR


   SOME (Section B) or all of the employees of Contractor and any subcontractor are covered employees. If this box
   is checked, I further certify that:

   (1) Contractor has obtained all required criminal history record information regarding its covered employees. None
   of the covered employees has a disqualifying criminal history.

   (2) If Contractor receives information that a covered employee subsequently has a reported criminal history, Contra
   ctor will immediately remove the covered employee from contract duties and notify the District in writing within 3 busi
   ness days.

   (3) Upon request, Contractor will provide the District with the name and any other requested information of covered
   employees so that the District may obtain criminal history record information on the covered employees.

   (4) If the District objects to the assignment of a covered employee on the basis of the covered employee's criminal h
   istory record information, Contractor agrees to discontinue using that covered employee to provide services at the
   District.

   Noncompliance or misrepresentation regarding this certification may be grounds for contract termination.
    None

    oftware and/or services. It has been uploaded in the Response Attachments under "Supplementary."

    Allovue does not carry Automobile Liability insurance as it is not applicable to the work that we do or provide to our
    customers. For the size company that we are, our General Liability insurance covers Workers Compensation and
    as such, a separate policy is not in use. Further, given the total number of employees staffed at Allovue, General L
    iability policy is of a generous size where Umbrella Insurance isn't a policy that Allovue presently holds.

8 Choice of Law clauses with TIPS Members

8 Automatic renewal of contracts or agreements with TIPS or a TIPS member entity
7 This clause DOES NOT prohibit multiyear contracts or agreements with TIPS member entities.

8 Indemnity Limitation with TIPS Members
8 Texas and other states restrict by law or state Constitution the ability of a governmental entity to indemnify others. TI

   nder this Solicitation limit the requirement that the Customer indemnify the Vendor by either eliminating any such ind
   emnity requirement clauses in any agreements, contracts or other binding documents OR by prefacing all indemnity
   clauses required of TIPS or the TIPS Member entity with the following: "To the extent permitted by the laws or the Co
   nstitution of the state where the customer resides, ".

    Agreed
